A little Adventure

We spent the last day of the Easter Holidays enjoying the great outdoors right on our doorstep.

We are lucky enough to have a lovely two mile long lane into the bog right beside our house, so we decided to take advantage of it and headed for a family adventure in the lovely sunshine.

The boys were allowed "ride shotgun" once we got into the wilderness — The boys were allowed “ride shotgun” once we got into the wilderness

We drove to the end of the lane and then walked along by the stream in search of a little waterfall we hear was nearby.

The adventure continues "on foot" — The adventure continues “on foot”

Of course there was a picnic (as all true adventurers need food). Plenty of sandwiches and a left over Easter egg for that extra treat!

We didn’t find the waterfall but we did find lots of other treasures.

Why go around the muddy puddles when you can go through them… especially when wearing sandals?

It is a long way back to the car, especially when you are only four and a half.
